It's good. It has a nice consistent feel about it. Very firery.

My only complaint would be the lettering, and how it seems to be burning away - it's almost hellish

and not very romantic. But that may be a matter of personal taste.

ok, well burn0ut suggested I put a flower where the glowing circle is... so this is what I first came up with...

then I thought about it... and I didn't think the flower colors where right, so I altered it to this...

thanks, PLEASE let me know what you think... I'm planning on giving it to my gf tomorrow... well, today, it's 5am

[add] sorry... yeah, I *THOUGHT* I was completely finished with the picture, until burn0ut pointed out that little flower idea...

I had no problem with it. Then again, I'm an English speaking person. It isn't used as much in the "lay" manner, but is generally understood.

Like the flower.

Can I post mine in here? It is the breaking opposite side of love... a piece that I've been working on when I get a spare moment now and then. Although... I wouldn't really consider it art or anything... most of you will probably laugh.

sprout · Posted: Thu Jan 04, 2001 3:28 pm

yeah jess, please do. I'd love to see it!

Its really good is what it is, excelent balance of text/imagery

Jess · Posted: Fri Jan 05, 2001 4:49 am

Thank you fazedesign. I'm always reluctant to post images here... Like this image. It is sort of a depiction of a relationship I'm in.. but more than that... I couldn't put it in words. But you most likely get the idea looking at the image.

Jess, that pitcure before i looked into it looked realy warm, but when i started looking at the imagary and the text i realised its quite the opposite.
Its quite depressing and mooding yet warm from a distance.

Very nice.

"His hands clenched into fists"
"For years she was lost"
"You cant feel my pain"
"She broke"
Etc etc etc, its quite a worrying picture

I dont think i dare ask whats happaning in your relationship.
R U ok???
